Hi, I'm trying to set the path.repo setting in the the es config. I'm using this line: path.repo: ["/tmp/backups"] (with a space at the start of the line) But when I use it, ES fails to start. Are there any permissions that have to be taken into account or something? Thanks, Isaac

I've raised a GH issue on this, it's not uncommon so maybe we can do better - https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/20090
